Anne Murray - The Call lyrics

rate me

It's a long distance phone<br />

And I feel so alone<br />

Here without him<br />

<br />

It's a crime and a shame<br />

That I ain't got the change<br />

And don't you know that<br />

I'm worried about him<br />

<br />

I've been all over street<br />

Every street, up and down<br />

Looking for the man<br />

<br />

It's just a face in the crowd<br />

Where the traffic roars loud<br />

But don't you know, he'd be<br />

Proud to give a helping hand<br />

<br />

[CHORUS]<br />

Mister, can you<br />

Fnd it in your heart<br />

To lend me a dollar<br />

For the times have been slow<br />

I'm fresh outta dough<br />

And I ain't got the<br />

Money to call him<br />

<br />

I threw my pride out the door<br />

Cause I've been turned down before<br />

But I'll keep trying<br />

<br />

This kind of pain is<br />

Kind of hard to explain<br />

But the feeling's the same<br />

As like dying<br />

<br />

[Repeat CHORUS]<br />

<br />

You put the change in my hand<br />

You're the world's kindest man<br />

And I thank you, Sir<br />

<br />

You'll never know what you've done<br />

For this poor mother's son<br />

A thirsty man just got a<br />

Cold cup of water<br />

<br />

[Repeat CHORUS 2x]
